dream of red mansion

Jia Qing said with a sullen face, "Aren't you afraid that I'll be angry?"

"Don't be afraid... giggling..."

Daiyu only had the experience of going out on the streets when she was very young, and now she realizes it again, so she is naturally very interested.It's just that under the influence of the upbringing of the lady in the boudoir, she is still gentle and quiet, not as open as Qingwen.Qingwen, a girl, ran up and down the street, looking at one thing and touching another, as if Jia Qing and the three were shopping with her.

Because whenever Jia Qing and the others went, someone would come forward to disperse the others.In fact, there is no need to disperse. Although the soldiers of the Jinyi Army are all in casual clothes, they all have a lot of aura, and there are so many people, it is obvious that they are escorting a certain important person. went aside.

Therefore, no one dared to disturb Jia Qing and the others.Even those stall owners on the street only dared to glance at it before moving away. Only a few people asked questions before they dared to stutter and introduce their products...

Although novel, Daiyu is weak after all.After walking like this for less than half an hour, she started not to move much.

"Second brother, where are you?"

What Daiyu asked was where Jia Qing lived before, but she couldn't hold on any longer.

"It's almost there, it's almost here..." Jia Qing swore, without mentioning the place name...

Just before walking to a restaurant, Jia Qing hurriedly said: "Come on, let's go in and have something to eat, just in time to take a rest..."

The three girls naturally did not object, and followed Jia Qing into this relatively grand restaurant.

With so many of them walking in together, the commotion was too great, and the noisy restaurant quickly quieted down.

The waiters in the shop didn't dare to come over to say hello.

The shopkeeper hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile on his face: "Guest officers, please go upstairs, there is still space upstairs..."

Although there were a lot of people coming in, he could tell that all the others were guards, and only the young man in the middle, who was dressed in brocade clothes and magnificent manner, was the real master, so he only said to Jia Qing.

"What upstairs please? If you invite all the other people upstairs first, you can't bear it if you offend my young master and young lady!"

Wang Shun was thinking, Jia Qing was fine, he was very casual, but now Lin Daiyu also came out, he naturally did not dare to take the risk of Lin Daiyu being offended by his diners, after all, in his opinion, Lin Daiyu is even It is disrespectful to be looked at twice by others, but he knows how much Jia Qing cares about Lin Daiyu.

In order to avoid trouble, he felt that the only way to do this was not just to show off his power, but also for the sake of both parties.

It's just that, to others, it sounded a little domineering.

"This is too domineering, and the restaurant is not owned by his family, so why push people away..."

Many people showed dissatisfaction on their faces, and even whispered.

"Wang Shun, don't be reckless."

Stopping Wang Shun's bullying attitude, Jia Qing said with a smile: "Shopkeeper, is there any room above? Look at how many of us there are."

The shopkeeper was originally in trouble, but now he heard that the master, Jia Qing, was so easy-going, he felt relieved.Looking at Jia Qing and his group, after catching a glimpse of Daiyu's daughters, he immediately looked away, and he understood, and quickly said: "Yes, yes, there are still many vacant seats on the second floor. There is also a private room upstairs, I wonder where this master is planning to eat?"

Jia Qing smiled: "Exactly, then please ask the shopkeeper to take us up."

Although Jia Qing didn't care much about these etiquettes, he really didn't want to be disturbed by unrelated people when he was eating with Daiyu.Since there are private rooms, that would be great.

"Good good."

The shopkeeper agreed, stepped forward quickly, and led the way up the stairs.

Jia Qing also immediately went up to protect Daiyu.

After Jia Qing and others went upstairs, the diners in the hall saw that the guards were not only guarding the stairs, they obviously forbade anyone to go up.Moreover, the entrances of other passages were also guarded, and even the gates were guarded, so the food tasted bad all of a sudden.

If it weren't for the politeness of Jia Qing who met just now, they couldn't help but want to run away.

What they didn't know was that when Jia Qing and others first entered the restaurant, Zhao Baihu ordered the soldiers of the Jinyi Army to guard all the places with doors and windows in front of and behind the restaurant...

"Zizi, who are these people, it looks like the emperor is traveling..." This was a sour sarcasm, but I only dared to say it to my companions.

"Shh, keep your voice down, can't you see that they are members of the Jinyi Army! If you don't believe me, look at the knives they wear around their waists..." One person suddenly said.

His companion hastily glanced secretly at those who stood still.Sure enough, although they were all wearing casual clothes and didn't wear their knives outside, they could still see the occasional hilts of the knives through the corners of their clothes.

Those who have seen enough can naturally recognize the special weapon for that person.

"This faction, I'm afraid that Zhan Min from the Jinyi Army Nanzhen Fusi doesn't even have it..."

"Of course, besides, Mr. Zhan Min has extraordinary martial arts skills, so how can he need someone to protect him...

Others are not worthy of Jin Yijun as guards.In my opinion, the young man just now is most likely the imperial envoy who came to our Hangzhou before and dispatched troops to suppress the White Lotus Sect! "

"This?……"

Others generally believe in this inference.

The one who spoke mockingly before was startled, and then said: "A person as noble as him, will he come here to eat like us?"

If such people go out, wouldn't they be greeted by hundreds of officials, and then entertained at a private table?The worst thing is to go to Zuiyuan Building, and it must be cleared in advance...

One person laughed and said: "Didn't you see, besides the imperial envoy, there were two or three women, obviously the imperial envoy brought his sisters out to play, maybe he came in when he was walking here.

Today we are worth it, we can have dinner with the imperial envoy on the first floor, and we can brag about it to our mother-in-law when we go back. "

There will never be fewer smart people. After a while, Jia Qing's identity spread, and there were even well-informed people who even guessed Lin Daiyu's identity.

No wonder, people often say that brothels and restaurants are the easiest places to inquire about news...

……

It is natural for Jia Qing and others to go out and play with ease.However, at the same time, Yangzhou City and the counties under its jurisdiction were not peaceful.The mansions or yamen of seven or eight officials were broken into by ruthless officers and soldiers this morning, and then they could not be distinguished, and the master was taken away...

The Tixue Yamen in Yangzhou City is a relatively spacious place.Here is the place where Zheng Datong temporarily borrowed money from Yangzhou Prefecture, and used it to temporarily handle official affairs.

"Master is not good, master!" A family servant ran in

Zheng Datong, who was in a bad mood, immediately threw the pen in his hand on the table, and scolded outside: "Who is wrong? If you don't understand, I'll take your skin off!"

"Outside, news came from outside that Mr. He, Mr. Cheng and Mr. Li were all captured by the Jinyi Army!"

The servant managed to catch his breath and said in a hurry.

"What? When did it happen? Why were you arrested?"

Zheng Datong's complexion immediately changed, and he asked questions one after another!

"It was this morning. As for why, I don't know..."

Although the Jinyi Army of this dynasty is different from the Jinyiwei of the previous dynasty, because there is no imperial prison.However, its function is exactly the same!That is a sharp sword that the emperor hangs on the heads of all the officials, and if they take it away, it is probably more ominous than good luck!

Zheng Datong sat back on the chair in shock.

Among the three people mentioned by the servant, two of them are his deputy.They have all been arrested, how far are they?
